Gillar med Linux: Kan byta skrivbordsmiljö och laborera utan att tappa en endaste inställning. Fortfarande inloggad där jag vill i webbläsaren, osv.
Gillar inte: Ingen av miljöerna fungerar som jag vill. Därmed börjar jobbet att hitta vilken som är närmast och sedan börja tweaka.

Ok @futzle - late, but your 12 days challenge finally #nerdsniped me.. Super torn on the best way to abuse #fsharp. The dark horse approach would be to use simple loops but I went traditional, since it's #xmas season and just piped and tacit programmed it till it's undebuggable / unreadable..

It’s coming up to Christmas which means I’m ready to be #nerdsniped with a new project.

The AI assistant I thought would help me with this JSONPath refactoring task just hallucinated a feature for OpenAPI Overlays that does not exist (citation: I maintain the thing). But now I’m thinking …. maybe we DO need template based variable replacement as a feature?!?? #NerdSniped

Got #nerdsniped today at work, it just happened out of nowhere! It's a real thing, be careful out there, fellow nerds!

@projectgus OK now I’m curious… what factors continue to battery drain during installation? if you grab a tiny distro like DSL or Puppy does smaller install = less time = less battery drain…? 🤔
dammit, #NerdSniped!

@Heterokromia Consider me #NerdSniped!
Some quick Ducking around gives around $15 for a whole cake at a bake sale[1]. Since it's a fundraiser, we'll assume the cake-stalleers are footing the bill for supplies/preparation and 100% of the sale price is going towards buying our new bomber.
A B2 apparently ran $2B a pop, while newer B21s have that down to about $700M[2]. We'll average that out into $1.5B to make the math easier.
Putting that together: $1.5B/bomber ÷ $15/cake = 100 000 000 cakes to buy a new bomber from scratch. So get baking!

(and yes, I grabbed a quick set of unicode emoji/symbol ranges and wrote a #Python script that expanded them all to their individual code-points, iterated over them checking if 0x20 was set and if not-0x20 was also among the code-points; and if so, emitted the unicodedata.name() of both characters for quick evaluation) 🤓 -
- I'm comfortable assuming postcards are rectangular in overall shape, and don't have any holes in them (any that do can be amended manually!)
- There's sometimes little pieces of white-ish fluff on the black card; there would need to be made transparent too; though that's not been too tricky (it just makes the NYC example harder)No worries if you're now regretting replying — but if you're looking to be #nerdsniped then you're welcome 😂 (4/4)

Nerd sniped by a picture book this morning.

Back in March of 2018 I compiled a list of 100 of my favorite math questions. There's enough here to keep anyone #nerdsniped for quite a while. Enjoy!

I got properly #NerdSniped last night thinking about how to create #shapes.
A circle is easy and has a defined #circularity (1) and #AspectRatio (1), but how do you create a set of shapes with given values for these properties?
An ellipse seems like a decent "base" shape to start with but then calculating the perimeter is not as trivial as I thought it would be.
Here is the question that started it if anyone is interested in chiming in:

Tidying up code for finding all rectangles in a matrix.
-
@teunbrand Fresh eyes this morning saw a better way of penalising based on aspect-ratio.
I think this looks better than the previous two!
Now to tidy this spaghetti code :)
-
@teunbrand Two diferent rectangularisations of the same matrix.
In the second one i penalise narrow areas - hoping to promote areas at least 2 high (or wide).
Still some thin areas that could be replaced by fatter in top half of first two columns.
-
@teunbrand First draft.
Notes:
* There's an interesting choice to be made when multiple candidates match
* Locally optimal/greedy matching probably gives globally sub-optimal final result
* Feels like there should a 2d divide/conquer method.
* Also feels like there should be a 2d growth+simulated annealing that would producing something nice
* quadtrees / binary space partitioning methods?Do you have interesting test cases to try this on?
-
@teunbrand I'll probably spend all day thinking about this!

I have to be up in 5 hours to catch a flight but instead of sleeping, I'm noodling with #ImageJ scripts to detect soil boundaries.

Well, I didn't expect to get #nerdsniped by a 8 thousand year old piece of technology today
#Amphora are fucking cool, they were like the modern day shipping container of their time. Standardized, used for both liquid and solid cargo, and easy to carry and secure on standardized mounts.
Let alone being an impressive feat of #pottery to make
